I finally got my contracted‑nose revision surgery after 10 years!(in Korea)

Here’s my 1‑week post‑op review from Another Plastic Surgery Clinic.
I was really torn about getting a revision surgery after 10 years since my first one… but it finally feels like I’ve checked off a huge task from my life. Over time, my nose kept getting shorter and started lifting upward, and I ended up with a contracted nose. From the front, my nostrils were so exposed that every time I looked in the mirror, it stressed me out so much.
In photos, it felt like my nose was the only thing I could see… Since it was a revision, choosing the right clinic was the hardest part, but during the consultation, the doctor pinpointed every concern I had, which made me trust him and move forward with the surgery.

✅ Contracted Nose Revision Surgery
₩6,000,000 ~ ₩15,000,000
(6 million ~ 15 million KRW)
Costs increase depending on the severity of the contracture
Price varies based on whether septal cartilage or rib cartilage is required
Much more complex and difficult than a primary rhinoplasty
✅ Revision Rhinoplasty (General Nose Revision)
₩4,000,000 ~ ₩12,000,000
(4 million ~ 12 million KRW)
Includes silicone removal + structural correction
Price depends on whether additional tip cartilage support is needed
✅ Additional Cost for Rib Cartilage (Autologous Rib)
- ₩2,000,000 ~ ₩5,000,000
(+2 million ~ 5 million KRW)
Most contracted‑nose cases require rib cartilage, so this is commonly added
✅ Additional Cost for Donor Rib Cartilage (Irradiated Rib)
- ₩1,000,000 ~ ₩3,000,000
(+1 million ~ 3 million KRW)
Cheaper than autologous rib cartilage, but varies by clinic
